"With court orders and whatnot, I think that Apple would respond," Wozniak said, "But this case is more like, 'Should you build in a backdoor you can always find out what someone has,' then they can not have a realm of privacy, and I'm on privacy's side."

"There will always be terrorism, I don't believe that [Apple's stance] protects terrorism, there are other methods of investigation," Wozniak said.

Wozniak believes that it's not just the government that can misuse the custom software the FBI wants, because "future people, that run something like Apple, might decide to use it in ways they shouldn't."

Cook argued in his open letter that "while the government may argue that its use would be limited to this case, there is no way to guarantee such control."

Wozniak also relayed an interesting story about another time the FBI visited Apple headquarters:

"One time we talked to the FBI. They came into Apple and notified us how to watch for all these tiny spies that were going to try to get our IT. Steve asked the FBI one question: 'We do the same thing, right?' And the FBI guy said 'No, we don't.'"

"I believe in truth." Wozniak said. "I think they were lying, and I don't respect that answer."
